ASK VAL

Are we supposed to tell people when they are doing something wrong? Or should we never judge anyone, according to Matthew 6:37?

The Bible does caution us not to set ourselves up as judge, jury, or executioner!

There is a vast difference between a judgemental, critical attitude and genuine love. Let all that you do be done in love.
